Frequency response

Angle
Distance

Frequency response: from the spec sheet, p. 2. Titled "Frequency response", "0°, 1 m"; drawn as absolute sensitivity (dBV). Room and smoothing not stated.

The manufacturer draws absolute sensitivity (dBV/Pa); shifted here by a constant so 1 kHz is near 0 dB.

Dashed: outside the rated range, or simulated (other angles and distances). Hover or tap the graphs for values.

Polar pattern

Polar pattern: from the spec sheet, p. 2. Titled "Polar pattern". Each frequency is drawn on one side only (125 to 1000 Hz left, 2000 to 16000 Hz right); the pattern is taken as symmetric. Measuring conditions not stated.

From the spec sheet
Sensitivity−51.1 dBV/Pa (2.8 mV/Pa), free field, no load, 1 kHz. "2.8 mV/Pa"; converted. The 2009 product sheet states "2.8 mV/Pa at 1 kHz = -51 dB (0 dB = 1V/Pa)"; the 2006 manual gives "± 3 dB".p. 1
Output impedance350 ohm, nominal, 1 kHz
Rated load impedance1000 ohm, minimum. "Min. terminating impedance 1 kΩ".
Rated frequency range40 Hz to 18 kHz
ConnectorXLR-3
Weight355 g; also 330, 2009 product sheet. The 2006 manual (p. 6) also says 355 g; the 2009 product sheet says "330 g (11.64 oz)".
Dimensions47 × 181 mm. The text says "⌀ 47 x 151 mm", a misprint: the drawing on page 2 gives 181 mm (7.13"), as do the 2006 manual ("length: 181 mm", p. 6) and the 2009 product sheet ("47 x 181 mm"). Diameter 47 mm (46.6 mm in the drawing and the manual).
